The author of this post is kinda dumb. The iron curtain and Berlin wall are the same. Number 9 is not by one bit true. and at number 11, the cold war ended in 1991. Really. This information is one Google search away, if you don't care about history, general culture and did not already know this.

What, did these countries appear on world map just 25 years ago? Hell, I was so wrong thinking that my country has history longer than 1000 years... Thanks for clarifying that thing.But hey, wait, so where I was born and where I spent the first 17 years of my life (I'm 42)?

#9 someone notify the Hungarians, they still think they raided Europe in the 10th century. Or it was written by the same person who thinks Attila the Hun was just a fictional character in the Night at the Museum. :D

#1 - SMS messaging was used for the first time on 3 December 1992, so only recently turned 21.#2 - Family Matters recently passed it's 24th anniversary, so not far off the mark with that one.#3 - The first GPS satellite was launched in 1978, so GPS is 36 years old.#4 - Seinfeld will be 25 in a few months' time, so nearly right.#5 - Sega Genesis/Megadrive was launched in Japan in October 1988, so has indeed recently passed it's 25th anniversary.#6 - The first Batman film, starring Adam West, was in December 1966, so is a little over 47 years old. (The Michael Keaton one will be 25 later this year, though.)#7 - Saved By The Bell will be 25 later this year.#8 - Voyager pics of Neptune were 25 years ago.#9 - Cambodia was recognised by the UN in early 1991 (so is 23 years old); Bulgaria gained independence (for it's third time) in November 1989 (so is 24 years old); Hungary became an independent state in October 1989 (so will be 25 years old this year); Poland became an independent country (not for the first time) in 1989 (so is 25 years old); Romania left the Soviet Union in December 1989 (so will be 25 years old this year); Afghanistan's "birth" is tricky to pinpoint, due to lots of different regimes and wars - not sure what criteria you'd use to say it started 25 years ago.#10 - Baywatch will be 25 later this year.

... That feeling where you've spent an hour or two addressing 25 points, but are told your post is too long, so you split it into three parts... but somehow inexplicably lose the second of the three parts... :(

#21 - Tiananmen Square massacre was 25 years ago. You're on a roll!#22 - Magnum's 25.#23 - I'll agree Sky's 25 (though you could easily argue that one, as the company was formed in 1980).#24 - Utter nonsense. The incident you're likely referring to (Kiyoaki Tanaka and Shigeyuki Hashimoto) had nothing to do with WW2, and both soldiers knew the war had ended decades earlier.#25 - The worldwide web is widely recognised as starting in December 1990 (so recently turned 23), but it's start depends on your criteria.

TL-DR - All in all, most of those things are around 23-27 years old, so are about right, but quite a few are a LONG way off the mark...

Hi Late, It seems there is some confusion when they say "25" or so "years old". I don't think getting out of the Soviet block can be an indicator for the "birth" of a country.Check in Wikipedia - for example the First Bulgarian Empire was established in 681 CE.
